High-throughput single-cell transcriptome profiling of tomato leaf

ABSTRACT: The occurrence of Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) disease seriously damages tomato growth and yield, and there is no effective way to control ToCV transmission. So far, no studies have reported exploring the interaction between ToCV and tomato at the single cellular level. In this study, single cell RNA sequence was performed on a total of 26720 individual cells from healthy and ToCV-infected tomato leaves. We through identifying cell types, the first tomato leaf cell atlas was successfully constructed. In situ hybridization experiments identified specific marker genes that can be used to identify tomato cell types. Moreover, we have characterized transcription factors that may play a key role in tomato response to ToCV infection, and described the trichome differentiation trajectory during ToCV infection through pseudotime analysis. In conclusion, we proved the feasibility of single-cell sequencing to study the response of plants to biotic stress, and put forward new insights into the interaction between ToCV and tomato from the cellular level. Our data will lay the foundation for following studies between ToCV and plants, and will also provide a valuable reference for future research on non-model plant single cells.

Project description:Purpose: Plant trichomes are hair-like protuberances developing from epidermal cells of most terrestrial plants, serve as an excellent system for analyzing the molecular mechanisms underlying cell fate choices, cell cycle control, and cell morphogenesis. Regulation of trichomes in arabidopsis has been well characterized. However, the mechanisms of multicellular trichomes is unclear. To further identify the genes responsible for the SlCycB2-mediated phenotype change, we compared the gene expression profiles of SlCycB2-OE and RNAi plants by RNA-seq. Methods: The transcriptomes of between SlCycB2-OE and RNAi in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) cultivar Ailsa Craig (AC) by RNA-seq analysis were evaluated using the Illumina HiSeq™ 2500 sequencing platform. Raw sequences were filtered and the resulting sets of clean reads were used for the following analysis by Hisat2 and DEGseq software. qRT-PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Results: In this study, we determined that SlCycB2 encodes a nuclear localized protein, which is highly expressed in trichomes, stigmas, hypocotyls and stems, and induced by the light, suppressed under the dark. Transgene analysis showed that suppression of SlCycB2 could promote type III and type V trichomes formation. On the contrary, overexpression of SlCycB2 could result in nearly disappearance of all non-glandular trichomes (including type III and V), as well as the glandular ones of type I and type VI. Detection of secondary metabolites indicated that the production of monoterpene and sesquiterpene were significantly decreased in SlCycB2-OE plants, which thus caused the reduction of the defense against Prodenia litura. Transcriptome profile demonstrated that the differential expressed genes mainly participate in the biosynthesis of terpenes, cutin, suberine and wax. Furthermore, we identified several homologs of this gene in many plants, SlCycB3 in tomato, NtCycB2 in tobacco, AtCycB2 in Arabidopsis, which have similar regulatory functions in trichome formation. SlCycB2 overexpression also led to abnormal flower with the unclosed stamen, shortened style and aberrant pollen. Conclusions: The results demonstrate that SlCycB2 play a critical role in multicellular trichome formation, secondary metabolite biosynthesis, Prodenia litura defense and reproductive organ development in tomato. The similar roles of its homologs in multicellular trichome formation suggest that Solanaceous species may share common regulatory pathway.
